Hey all,

I joined MFP a couple years ago and was doing really well I had gotten into a weightloss program and things were looking really good for me to get to my goal. But then life happened and stress got the best of me, I started gaining so the wieghtloss program "let me go", then I broke my ankle and was bed ridden for 2 months and gained more weight. Ever since I have been struggling more and more with emotional eating and outright addictive cravings. It feels like I have lost all control and that there is no where for me to get it back! I have struggled with my weight for so long and I just want to feel good! I want to feel like I can do anything! Anyways I would really love to meet some new people in person or on here, just people who I can talk to when I am having a hard time and need some support! Add me as a friend or just say hi :)

    Hug hug hug! I just came back 5 days ago after being gone for 4 years. I didn't break any bones like you did, but I had some life crises and this & that & the other, and came back weighing more than my original starting weight! Urgh!!!

    Glad you're back!!!!! We can do this.

    I can relate to the starting over aspect. I just started working out again 3 days ago and am feeling very committed to this. Sending friend request now.
